Need some help here. Someone hit my car and it’s their fault (hit my rear end). I was a bit shaky so wasn’t fully focused at the time but just realized that the insurance info they gave me is for an expired policy and they’re not picking up. I have their license plate info and picture of driver license. What should I do next? I filed a claim with my insurance and gave them the info I have on the other driver.

Your insurance company is going to do everything they can to get someone else to pay, so just assume they are on it.

As long as you have uninsured motorist coverage your insurance should handle it if they are actually uninsured. They might have just sent you info based off of an insurance card that’s expired and their policy is still active

I would still file a police report.

Aw man. I didn't know that. I'm sorry. Hopefully insurance can find them.

Have you tried calling their insurance company to file a claim. I would start there, even if the card they gave you is expired. It might be an old printout.

If you have any issues, just let your insurance handle it.

They may not be picking up because it’s a Sunday?

Sorry, Saterday* I wasn’t in the US when I posted this.

They may have the same insurance policy and just gave expired card as others have said. I would call them and open a claim. Even though your insurance "could " handle it, I always prefer to go through other motorist liability insurance. It is referred to as a "third party" claim in that instance and you have more leverage against them were you to file a lawsuit. Your remedies with your own carrier (i.e. being required to accept LKQ parts over OEM) may be narrowed by contract of your policy.

Your insurance can pull up their current policy with just a license plate. How, I'm not sure, but they have the ability to.

Had someone try to pull a fast one with fake insurance in the past. Thankfully I had taken a picture of their license plate and that was enough.

Best of luck!
